Introduction to Digital Communication Systems

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Spanning modern topics in digital communication systems, Introduction to Digital Communication Systems links topics to practical applications and presents necessary theoretical knowledge in this intensively developing field. Classical coding theory is supplemented by description of newer developments such as turbo-codes and Low Density Parity Check codes. The text presents new developments achieved in wireless communications such as coding, modulations, and multiple access methods. Mathematics is kept on a moderate level that is not too cumbersome for students or engineers but maintains sufficiently precise considerations.

Combining theoretical knowledge and practical applications, this advanced-level textbook covers the most important aspects of contemporary digital communication systems. Introduction to Digital Communication Systems focuses on the rules of functioning digital communication system blocks, starting with the performance limits set by the information theory. Drawing on information relating to turbo codes and LDPC codes, the text presents the basic methods of error correction and detection, followed by baseband transmission methods, and single- and multi-carrier digital modulations. The basic properties of several physical communication channels used in digital communication systems are explained, showing the transmission and reception methods on channels suffering from intersymbol interference. The text also describes the most recent developments in the transmission techniques specific to wireless communications used both in wireline and wireless systems. The case studies are a unique feature of this book, illustrating elements of the theory developed in each chapter. Introduction to Digital Communication Systems provides a concise approach to digital communications, with practical examples and problems to supplement the text. There is also a companion website featuring an instructors' solutions manual and presentation slides to aid understanding. * Offers theoretical and practical knowledge in a self-contained textbook on digital communications * Explains basic rules of recent achievements in digital communication systems such as MIMO, turbo codes, LDPC codes, OFDMA, SC-FDMA * Provides problems at the end of each chapter with an instructors' solutions manual on the companion website * Includes case studies and representative communication system examples such as DVB-S, GSM, UMTS, 3GPP-LTE

Autorenporträt

Krzysztof Weso¿owski has been employed at Poznan University of Technology (PUT), Poznan, Poland, since 1976. He received PhD and Doctor Habilitus degrees in communications from PUT in 1982 and 1989, respectively. Since 1999 he has held the position of Full Professor in telecommunications. Currently he is Head of the Department of Wireless Communications at the Faculty of Electronics and Telecommunicationsat PUT. In his scientific activity he specializes in digital wireline and wireless communication systems, information and coding theory and DSP applications in digital communications. He is the author or co-author of more than 100 scientific publications, including the following books: "Systemy radiokomunikacji ruchomej" (in Polish, WKL, Warsaw, 1998, 1999, 2003), translated into English as "Mobile Communication Systems", John Wiley & Sons, Chichester, 2003, and into Russian as "Sistiemy podvizhnoy radiosvyazi", Hotline Telecom, Moscow, 2006, and "Podstawy cyfrowych systemow telekomunikacyjnych" (in Polish, WKL, Warsaw, 2003). The current book is an extended and updated translation of the latter publication. He published his results, among others, in IEEE Transactions on Communications, IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications, IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology, IEE Proceedings, European Transactions on Telecommunications, Electronics Letters and EURASIP Journal on Wireless Communications and Networking. Professor Wesöowski was a Postdoctoral Fulbright Scholar at Northeastern University, Boston, in 1982-1983 and a Postdoctoral Alexander von Humboldt Scholar at the University of Kaiserslautern, Germany, in 1989-1900. He also worked at the University of Kaiserslautern as a Visiting Professor. His team participates in several international research projects funded by the European Union within the Sixth and Seventh Framework Programs.
